A Color To Brighten The Mood

With winter temperatures returning to our area over the past few days and nights, the daffodils in the yard are coming to the end of their season. I had cut a few and placed them in a vase, and to be honest... they faired qiute well indoors!

BUT

it was time to let them go today as their heads drooped with a last gasp.

So I went to the yard and cut a few more, since it won't be long and they will give it up also.

You can see that these don't look quite as crisp as they should, due to winter temperatures having returned to our area.

They've done their job for the year and put a broad smile on my face with each glance I have taken from my office window.

There is absolutely no better color in the yard or in the home to bring a person's mood from bland to grand.
